Has anyone here actually managed to negotiate a mid-year salary adjustment because market rates went up, without changing roles or companies? I keep seeing salary reports showing higher ranges for my title, and I’m curious how people have used that data in real conversations.

It's a harder argument to make now than it used to be. I have done it once in the past by pointing out the increase in market value and reminding them of my accomplishments at the company. Employers know that we don't have the same freedom to job hop as we used to, so I can't see it working so well right now.

I’ve only gotten 1 mid year raise in my life and it was triggered by my company, not by me. I wish that it was more common

Recently, the CEO and my boss, the VP gave me the latitude to promote myself and "write my own" job description. I've been the Marketing Manager of this company for about 7 months. Already received 1 raise.

Much of the work in my "new" job description, I've already been doing. My currently salary is $70K. New title is Director of Communications and Systems Integration. What is a reasonable salary increase here.

I have about 7 years experience in this area.
